Headed to Las Vegas anytime soon? While it may not be warm enough to don a bathing suit where you live, it's getting hotter in Sin City and the hotels are opening their pools up for the summer seaons.

This here is a rendering of the new pool at the MGM Grand called Wet Republic, which is bringing a party poolside during the daytime. The pool has already soft-opened but the official grand opening will take place this Friday, April 25th.

More Vegas pools to check out:

· Excalibur: The Excalibur is more known for its gaudy medieval facade but the place has doubled its pool area, adding two pools and 17 cabanas. Maybe a guy or two from Thunder from Down Under will hang out there.
· Mandalay Bay: Don't want to go swimming or sweat it out in the Vegas heat? The Beachside Casino encourages beach attire. There's also a restaurant, The Beachside Bar & Grill, and of course air-conditioning.
· The Mirage: If you miss your days of topless tanning on the French Riviera, then go bare at Bare. The adult, European-style sunbathing pool can also turn into a nighttime rendezvous by adding a clear platform over the pool. The only downside? California Pizza Kitchen caters the food here.
· The Palazzo: The Palazzo has just opened its pool deck for its inaugural season. There are three pools, each with sections for your lounge chairs so you can lay-out half in the water and half out. Also, we hear an entire set of rooms is being built overlooking the pool area for VIPs only.
